Whenever I can photograph scenes without using my camera’s flash, I’m thrilled. Thrilled! The flash flattens all things and often leaves harsh, unrealistic shadows. I’d rather shoot fuzzy images illuminated by available light than use it. Here, the light comes from a spot attached to the soffit of a Brighton home. It casts beautiful shadows on the freshly fallen cotton, don’t you think?

Well I found this on Digg, and I like it so I dugg it!
